  Now in one volume: the first three novels in the urban fantasy series “that playfully mixes magic and interesting characters into an intriguing mystery” (Kirkus Reviews). Between Mundanus, the world of humans, and Exilium, the world of the Fae, lies the Nether, a mirror-world where the social structure of 19th-century England is preserved by Fae-touched families who remain loyal to their ageless masters. Born into this world is Catherine Rhoeas-Papaver, who escapes it all to live a normal life in Mundanus, free from her parents and the strictures of Fae-touched society. But now she’s being dragged back to face an arranged marriage, along with all the high society trappings it entails.  Crossing paths with Cathy is Max, an Arbiter of the Split Worlds treaty with a dislocated soul who polices the boundaries between the worlds, keeping innocents safe from the Fae. After a spree of kidnappings and the murder of his fellow Arbiters, Max is forced to enlist Cathy’s help in unravelling a high-profile disappearance within the Nether. Getting involved in the machinations of the Fae, however, may prove fatal to all involved. The Split Worlds Omnibus—spanning Between Two Thorns, Any Other Name, and All Is Fair—presents the intricately plotted and delightfully suspenseful world Emma Newman has crafted.Praise for the Split Worlds series“JK Rowling meets Georgette Heyer . . . Newman renders the Split Worlds with verve and an infectious sense of fun, and presents in Cathy a strong and personable heroine.”—The Guardian “Learning to be a young lady has never seemed so dangerous.”—Mary Robinette Kowal, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author of the Lady Astronaut series

  "A swords-and-sorcery tale that dazzles..." -Kirkus Reviews  
  "THE IRON SWORD is a delightful start to a promising new fantasy series, and it's well worth a read, particularly for the reader who never outgrew the best fairy tales."- Catherine Langrehr for IndieReader  
  Tess O’Connor is looking forward to spending a relaxing few days in Texas away from college and civilization. Then she begins to have strange dreams about small, fierce fairies, and a mysterious, handsome Unseelie Knight shows up in the middle of the Hill Country with a summons from Queen Mab…for Tess’s best friend, Molly. 
  Whether Tess believes in the Fae or not, she can’t stand idly by while the Unseelie Knight spirits Molly away into a different world, and a split-second decision places the Unseelie Knight in Tess’s debt. With his honor at stake, the Knight breaks Queen Mab’s edict, bringing Tess into the Fae world along with Molly, and they are both swept into the dangerous intrigues of the Winter Court. 
  Queen Mab believes that Molly could fulfill an ancient prophesy about the Iron Sword, a weapon deadly to the Fae but wielded in centuries past by women descended from the druids and sworn to protect both the Fae and mortal worlds. With evil rising in the Fae world and as the mortal no one meant to be there, Tess faces threats from both within the Court and outside its walls. As Tess makes allies with outcasts and learns to fight with both swords and words, she must uncover her own destiny, and find the unlikely hero who may be able to save them all… 
  Contains mild fantasy violence, peril and a dash of romance (non-explicit). The start to a complete 7-book fantasy series, The Fae War Chronicles.
